Alabama-Birmingham reinstated football for the 2017 season and fi nished 8-5 with a loss to Ohio in the Bahamas Bowl. UAB had disbanded its football, rifle and bowling programs in December 2014, after the university found the athletic budget had been $1 million over in each of the previous 10 years.

Keeping the books

The petition has led to briefcases and laptops scattered across a conference room.

Trickle down $$$ from the big boys in NW Arkansas. Another cluster to add to the Foundation scam. No attendance. Money for this foolishness could be given back to students by lowering cost since a majority of them work to pay their tuition and fees. After all, UALR should be in the business to educate. Let the NW Ark Razorbacks provide a two-year program for future NFL/NBA players, and multimillion dollar coaches who are rewarded for their failures.

Even these two-bit colleges are outrageously expensive. Student athletic fees add insult to injury. UALR needs a football team like a nursing home does. Not only would a team be a waste of money, the feasibility study is a waste of money. Plenty of football played in Arkansas already.
